"We've been told our games are too expensive in some countries but we've been using Steam's recommended pricing for a while. We trust Valve enough to not change this. If our games are still too expensive for you, you can pirate them until you have enough to support us."

But so many games still have demos? I feel like it's probably more that they're cheap and don't see a reason to pay whatever it costs to throw a demo together for free

Like people have been pointing out, it's usually indies which don't have an establish audience yet that do this. It's much rarer for triple A games.
